Directions
Combine water and quinoa in a sauce pan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low and cover, simmering for 15 minutes.
While quinoa cooks, combine dressing ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth and creamy.
When quinoa is finished, remove from heat and fluff with a fork.
In a large bowl combine all salad ingredients. Top individual salads with dressing. Refrigerate any leftovers in air-tight containers for up to one week.
